What we said in our Forza Horizon 5 review: 'In five games and nine years, Forza Horizon has undergone rapid expansion and complication but little fundamental change, for the best possible reason: because Playground Games knocked the concept out of the park on its first go. And, if nothing else, you can always rely on that golden triangle - Master Chief and his gun, grenade and Gravity Hammer - this time on your own terms, the best it's been in a decade.'
'Halo Infinite, underneath it all, is about just that. Working things out while finishing the fight. Somewhere between those map icons is tantalising mystery, and that's what Silent Cartographer was all about, wasn't it?

It started life chunky, slightly underpowered and slightly overpriced compared to its main rival PS4 - with a parent company, Microsoft, that seemed to have its eye off the ball. The Xbox One is one of the greatest stories of transformation - and comeback - of any game console.
